Sharpedo (Jaws) @ Life Orb
Trait: Speed Boost
EVs: 252 Atk / 252 Spd / 6 HP
Carefull Nature
- Protect
- Waterfall
- Earthquake
- Crunch

Shapredo provides me with a good lead. First of all, i can choose to taunt on a setup or hazard Pokemon or just simply attack with its great attack and decent speed. It has the two stab moves with Earthquake to deal with electric Pokemon. It carries the life orb and speed boost to get the extra stat boost in case i can get a small sweep going.

Gligar @ Eviolite
Trait: Sand Veil
EVs: 252 HP / 106 Def / 152 SDef
Careful Nature
- Stealth Rock
- Toxic
- U-turn
- Roost

Gligar is a Stealth-Rocker that can stay around for a bit. it carries toxic and roost to stall out an opponents pokemon. U-Turn is a good way to scout for a possible ice move, as that is a huge threat to it.

Dusclops @ Eviolite
Trait: Pressure
EVs: 252 HP / 128 Def / 128 SDef
Relaxed Nature
- Shadow Sneak
- Seismic Toss
- Will-O-Wisp
- Pain Split

Dusclops does a good job of stopping physical sweepers with its huge defenses and resistance of fighting and normal types. It has Will-O-Wisp to cripple Pokemon by burning them and Shadow Sneak to finish of low HP opponents. The pain split provides a good source of damage to the foe and recovery for Dusclops.

Altaria @ Leftovers
Trait: Cloud Nine
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 6 Spd
- Heal Bell
- Roost
- Draco Meteor
- Fire Blast

Altaria is here for utility, but it can cause some good damage. It also carries cloud nine to stop those pesky weather teams. The heal bell is for status and the roost is to keep it alive. Draco can hit mostly everything while Fire Blast kills ice and steel types.

Shaymin @ Leftovers
Trait: Natural Cure
EVs: 128 SDef / 252 SAtk / 128 Def
Timid Nature
- Substitute
- Leech Seed
- Hidden Power [Rock][Ice][Fire] or Earth Power?
- Seed Flare

Shaymin is a Sub-Seeder set with generally low HP so it regains a lot. It is also a threat offensively, as it has pretty good speed, carries the seed flare along with another move to cover resistances. It creates a real pest for opponents using high HP Pokemon, and it might even make them switch out giving me time to set up.

Porygon-Z @ Choice Scarf
Trait: Adaptability
EVs: 252 SAtk / 252 Spd / 6 HP
Modest Nature
- Thunderbolt
- Tri-Attack
- Ice Beam
- Shadow Ball
- HP Fighting?

Porygon is my fastest and one of my most powerful Pokemon. It has the scarf to give it good speed
and a few different types of attacks to cover other types. The Tri-Attack is deadly, with Porygon's naturally good Satk combined with adaptability and stab gives it 2x damage on anything(other than ghost).

Notes
- Bold text is an area I need help with
- Is this post boring? Anything i could add to it to make it more entertaining?
- The adition of Dusknoir helps with Stoutland
- Any good nicknames? So far i have none so it would be nice if you guys could post any ideas! Thanks to everyone for helping me!
 
Hi, your team looks great. However, anything decently fast could destroy it. Also, what are Gligar's EV's? Otherwise, like i said earlier, great team!
8/10
 
I would definitely recommend adding to your descriptions as well, might help some of us team rate better.

Run Speed Boost>Rough Skin on Sharpedo by the way, it will certainly help you in the long run as Sharpedo can't take any attacks to the point where Rough Skin will be helping you at all.
 
Oh, one more thing. To maximize Gligar's capabilities as a physical wall, put 252 EVs into HP, 252 EVs into Defense, and 4 into Sp. Def. As Beginner14 said, Roost with Immunity is illegal, so you will need to change that.
 
roost being illegal and all id put Earthquake on Gligar so your only attacking option isnt U-turn.

HP fire/ice on shaymin for grass types that want to ruin your sub-seed plans.

if you opt for the speed boost sharpedo id suggest protect over taunt. protect will give you a free turn to get a speed boost which could decide the out come of a game. then waterfall over aquat jet on the speed boost set.

i see Dusclops working better for you than bannet. it can run the same move set with greater bulk. though it wont be as fast(which may not appeal to you) it should ease some of your problems with stoutland.
 
OK ive changed the gligar's ability and im using dusclops instead now. Also, my sharpedo has speed boost. Thank you!
 
You guys forgot one thing. If he runs speed boost, he should change his water move to waterfall, seeing as how it is better at destroying stuff and dusclops already has priority.


Sharpedo should be nicknamed Jaws. Name dusclops The Stalker. Name Porygon-Z Error 51099. Nickname Shaymin Little Bro. Nickname gligar Batman. Nickname altaria Cloud Run.
 
Alright im going to use waterfall instead of aquaa jet because I have speed boost. Sharpedo is now Jaws and i saw i did not have a nature so he is now carefull so he may be able to take a hit...

@ king i said waterfall before :P

@ zackary sharpedo is a glass cannon. its full on attack. if its careful it will miss out on many important kos
heres a set that u should use:
Sharpedo(jaws)
Speedboost
Adamant@life orb
Evs 252 atk and it doesnt necessarily need full speed but investment in anything us would be pointless since its so frail. A neutral hit from anything is going to do serious damage now matter what nature you have. so 252 speed is going to be your best choice(for opposing sharpedo and choice scarfers)

-protect
-waterfall
-crunch
-Earthquake

Protect is so good with speed boost. without it sharpedo will die to scarfers and pokemon faster than it without the speed boost b4 you even get the chance to attack.
 
Ok i replaced the carefull nature on sharpedo and went for protect. I also replaced taunt with protect to get my speed up even know it may allow opponets to set up their rocks or spikes.Sharpedo also now has ice fang insted of earthquake just to test it out for grass types
 
taunt isnt as good seeing how its use is situational.
how much have to play tested this team?
if you have a bit (over 5 games), how many times has sharpedo been ko'd do to being out sped? on the flip side how often has taunt been a life saver?

play testing and facing multiple opponents is key to building a good team. if taunt comes in handy alot then opt for taunt. but if you find your self never using it than go for protect.
 
@chunx93 Taunt hasnt been that helpful when the opeonet leads offensivlely but protect will let me get a free turn for speed boost. So thanks for the advice.
